This February 22nd get away from Puerto Vallarta, stroll the Bucerias cobblestone streets and drop in to see the abundance of Art and fine craft that has been quietly evolving and increasing in this small laid-back pueblo. In this little town you will see some fabulous work not available anywhere else. Make a night of it and stay for a delicious dinner at one of our fine restaurants.
All the galleries are located along 5 blocks of Lazaro Cardenas street, to the south of the main plaza, with many fine jewellery stores and gourmet restaurants. During this special evening, from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. (Jalisco hours), many galleries will also have guest artists showing their work.
The balloons will be out that will lead you to each participating gallery and refreshments will be available at most of the galleries. The free horse and buggy will be available to taxi people between galleries.
The Artisans of Bucerias invite you to take a leisurely stroll, and discover this secret paradise.
